Something that can't be changed




HaHaHa.......They finally figured it out!!!!! What I'm talking about is the shift of styles between different social groups! In past 10 YEARS! chain clothing stores such as Hollister, American Eagle, Aeropostale, Abercrombie... have been selling basically the same styles and logos to the market and the marketing technique they used (which was basically stamping on there LOGO to everything) was working because people wanted to logo and just the fact they were wearing "designer" clothing but that is all changing. Studies have shown that chain stores such as AE.... are actually losing money because a HUGE shift of style is happening and people don't want labels everywhere on them so other stores such as PacSun, UrbanOutfitters, American Apparel,Hot Topic are doing so much better because of the "alternative" characteristic of the clothing. So of course the AE company tried a new styles and less LOGOS approach with adding v neck tees, caridgans ( for both sexes),vests, and slimmer fitting for guys. This new apporoch COMPLETELY backfired and those styles completely failed and people just basically bought less from them. I guess when people get so use to the typical styles of certain stores they really stick with it BUT with my recent outing during Black Friday i did notice that they are trying the " alternative" look with the typical LOGO slapped on the clothing BUT they did try to tone down the logo and tone up the actual design of the clothing. So at the end they did change but just very slowly.

Wool,Indie,tube,slouchy

Picture from LookBook

With these words mashed together they sounds kind of ewww but you will get it....A really fresh style this winter is sporting a neutral WOOL peacoat! Seriously these jackets rock! You can always dress them up or down plus they are UNISEX!:D Add to the warmness of the coat, throw on a knit tube scarf. Trust me these things are crazy warm, trust me I go to a outdoor school campus and I know cold and trust me this thing will be your BFF! Don't forget the pants and yes I feel there is a growing trend with "Indie" fit jeans...maybe because it's super cold and skinny jeans just aren't helping....idk and to top it all off with slouchy booties. Yeah.... you might think slouchy booties are girls only you are sadly mistaken.....hehehe Hopefully with these helping tips it might keep you stylish and warm this holiday!

Hate makes me cry :(


Why guys? why? do we hate so much? Seriously, so I have searching around facebook so i ran into some hate groups against typical high school social groups such as "scene", "gangsta" ...... and seriously so people really care that much on how people look and what type of music they listen to? Uhhh...I guess so.....Also I read into some of the comments on the hate pages and a lot say "how the hate how annoying scene kids are" and if you really think about it anyone can be annoying. Come on you can a complete popular kid and be SUPER annoying. Also i notice how they like to rant on how they think they are soo cool for being what they are. So does really make you any better to but some much anger out in the internet? Hmmm.... I think people need to stop being soo hurtful and just get along and don't complain about stupid stuff like this. Yeah, I personally don't like the "preppy" group but not because they dress like that, it's mostly me not like the personality, actions,morals... of the specific people in the group and it's just ironic that they are in one social group. BUT I do have some "preppy" friends and actually I really like hanging out with them. So don't be so judgmental on peoples' style,music.... We should be more worried about more important things such as environment, civil rights, education.... 10 years from now you will look back and ask yourself" why did I hate them so much." Yeah, it might seem very serious now but really it really doesn't matter. Just let it be and 10 years from now and it will be seen on "I Love Generation X" on MTV.

TrayceShaw Update!:D



Trayce Shaw
does a great job trying to convey this message across to everyone that you sexuality doesn't make who are are....well it does but there is a actual personality behind that too. So don't judge because from my own experiences people do judge harshly because of your sexuality....Not cool but oh well they are ignorant and they should really think about how that really hurts someone on the inside when they are trying to get a cheap laugh out of their friends....I guess the world sucks but if you try to think a little more positively maybe the world will be a better place.
